If the XML isn't well formed, this would be thrown. Are you sure that it is well formed?

Well, I just followed the step on WPF Data Binding Tutorial. There's a xml file that I should make, I just only changes the location of images (add image on image_form). May be I should compare which one of code xml that was true. I'll check it now, can you teach me more.. Sniff | :^)

In my xaml page I would like to display an image from my C# project's resources folder depending on the value of binded data. To explain it better, I want to display one of three images (information.png, warning.png, or error.png) depending on what type of data it is. Is there a way to make such a conditional statement strictly in XAML markup language? Thanks.

You would normally do this using a data trigger[^].

Reading Directories on a web server

Hi All,

I get that Silverlight has security on reading directories, and that is fully understandable. What I need to do is read the directories on the web site that the silverlight control is hosted in. This will be hosted on my server, so there is no real risk that I will write code that is going to damage my server. Laugh | :laugh:

I am still new to Silverlight, but not new at all to coding.

I am starting to think that it is impossible to do directly in silverlight. I was thinking that I could write a service that returns the info needed, but that is overkill for what I am doing, and can become a security risk itself.

Please let me know IF I can do it, and how.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks,
Brad

Silverlight apps run on the client so there's no way
they can read anything on the server without making a request
to the server.

A web server like IIS can provide directory browsing, but do you really
want to turn that on? Same implications as implementing your own directory
service...

No, I definitely don't want to do that.

Looks like I will have to create a WCF Service or something so that I can get the info I want.

It just seems like a PITA to go through to get what I want.

Thanks.

Thanks,
Brad

Maybe, but that isn't a Silverlight issue - that's web servers.
If everyone wanted their web directories to be browsable then that
feature would be on by default Smile | :)

AFAIK, DataGrid does not have a rowspan property.

A Grid has a row span and can be set in codebehind as follows

Grid.SetRowSpan();

Anti-aliasing 3D content is not supported on windows XP. You could try changing HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Avalon.Graphics\MaxMultisampleType as described in this article http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa970912.aspx.

I think you may have to create it, there are quite a lot of discussions about it on the web that you can search for. I also came across http://stackoverflow.com/questions/39454/is-there-a-secret-trick-to-force-antialiasing-inside-viewport3d-in-windows-xp where it says it should be HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Avalon.Graphics\MaxMultiplesampleType. Neither of them exist on my vista machine but as they're mainly for debugging I think you create them. They affect all the WPF applications and its recommended your app/installer doesn't change them.

testing if window is loaded.

I am writing a WPF app that loops thru a series of windows. The first time thru, I need to create the next window, but on subsequent times, I want it to re-display the previously created window. I believe the function TryFindResource() should help me do this, but it's not working. See code below.

Private Sub btnGo_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs)

     Dim nextWindow As Window = CType(TryFindResource("Window3"), Window)
     If (nextWindow Is Nothing) Then
         nextWindow = New Window3
         nextWindow.Show()
     Else
         nextWindow.Show()
     End If

 End Sub

Appreciate any help with this. Yes, this is my first WPF app.

I changed the line with TryFindResource() to:

Dim nextWindow As Window = CType(Application.Current.TryFindResource("Window3"), Window)

The change made no difference. It still doesn't find the existing instance of Window3.

Try a static/shared field - These are related to the class itself, not to the instance of the class:

In the Window3 code:

Private Shared _currentInstance as Window3

Public Shared Function GetInstance() As Window3
  If _currentInstance Is Nothing Then
    _currentInstance = New Window3
  End If

 GetInstance = _currentInstance
End Function

Also, be sure to add code to the OnClosing, or some similar location, to set _currentInstance back to Nothing if you close Window3.

And in your btnGo code:

Window3.GetInstance().Show()

Oh, and might want to consider giving Window3 a more meaningful name.

Thanks! That works, except it does shift focus to the "called window". If you can help me out here too, I would appreciate it. WPF makes me feel pretty helpless. I didn't realize it was so different from WinForms.
